In a wrongful death case due to nursing home neglect, typically, the victim and their loved ones allege that the nursing home failed to provide proper medical care and safety precautions, which ultimately caused serious injury and preventable death. Additionally, those affected often suffer additional losses in addition to the physical and emotional pain of losing a close relative or friend, such as lost wages and healthcare bills for end-of-life treatment.
When these types of cases are brought to court, all parties must adequately prove facts surrounding the circumstances of the incident. The burden of proof falls upon both sides to show that any relationship between negligence on the part of the defendant led to injuries caused by their actions or lack thereof. If successful, victims will find justice for their loved one’s suffering as well as financial compensation for their tragic loss.
It is important to consider whether evidence of abuse or neglect existed in a nursing home prior to the wrongful death of a tenant. Many times, care staff members may divulge information that suggests an increased risk of injury or death due to negligence or mistreatment. Additionally, medical records can provide indicators as to the level of care that was provided prior to the incident. Evidence of injuries, bruising, and silence from staff might all be utilized as proof of wrongful death in nursing homes. While not every incident results in casualties, it is essential for observers and legal authorities to recognize warning signs and take careful measures that avoid harm in the future.
Negligence can be committed by both the nursing home staff and the facility itself. This could come in the form of failing to provide adequate medical care, failing to make necessary repairs, or ignoring signs of infection or inadequate sanitation. In some cases, wrongful death might even occur due to elder abuse inflicted by nursing home staff. Families should familiarize themselves with their rights and seek legal guidance if they believe their loved one’s death could have been prevented.
It is possible that in certain cases there could have been foul play involved in a wrongful death case in a nursing home facility . Generally, legal action must be taken within a preset amount of time, placing urgency on investigating if the deceased’s death was caused by negligence or abuse. Nursing home wrongful death lawsuits are difficult and painful affairs for victims’ families, and the resolution process can take considerable effort and resources. However, such legal actions offer an opportunity for justice and compensation for otherwise unexplainable losses. If you believe someone you love has suffered a wrongful death due to abuse or neglect in a nursing home setting, it’s important to seek proper counsel as soon as possible to understand your rights.
In a wrongful death suit against a nursing home, determining who is responsible for providing adequate care to the elderly person in question is key. This means that staff, administration, and even the owners of the nursing home could potentially be held accountable. It is important to note that negligence by one or more of these parties could form the basis for a wrongful death claim. In some cases, the medical equipment used in caring for the individual can also be under scrutiny. Ultimately, what matters most when dealing with such tragic circumstances is ensuring proper representation so that justice is served on behalf of both the deceased and their family.
In 1964, Congress passed the Nursing Home Care Act, which established guidelines for quality standards in nursing home care, including staffing levels, nutrition standards, fire safety inspections, and more. Unfortunately, despite these milestones and regulations, negligence in some nursing homes has been an issue throughout our nation’s history, leading to inadequate care and wrongful death cases. The nursing home’s history may be considered, and other patient files may be investigated to collect all the details of the wrongful death case.

"Working with this law firm made settling my case a breeze! When i was injured in my car accident and my car was totaled, i was so worried about handling the insurance company and all of the phone calls and paperwork while i had a concussion. With a couple visits and a few emails back and forth with my paralegal and attorney, my case was settled in less than a year! If i ever needed to be represented again i will 100% be choosing Breit Cantor Grana Buckner to represent me! I appreciate everything they did for me!"

Kellie Jennings kept me up to date and informed through it all. I have another pending case & have no reservations that the outcome will be as good as the first. I would recommend to family & friends."
"Throughout 2019 and 2020 Attorney Kevin Biniazan helped me with a personal injury case. Aside from the professionalism and attentiveness one would expect from a quality law firm such as Breit Cantor Grana Buckner, I was taken by the fact that they agreed to take my case on a contingency basis, even though there was little evidence in my favor in the early stages of preparation. This meant the world to me. It meant that they believed in me, and my case, when two other firms declined to take the case. In late 2020 the case settled out of court and I received a substantial monetary award that exceeded my expectations. Thank you Kevin, and all your support staff for believing in me when many others did not!!!!"
"This law firm was highly recommended by a friend who had prior representation. I am very pleased with their professionalism and they kept me well informed of my injury case.

"My experience with Breit Biniazan and his team was very positive. They were very helpful, were always available, took time to explain the process, and answer any questions I had. A special thanks to Kellie for all her support and efforts. I always felt she was on my side and looking out for my best interest. I would highly recommend Mr. Binazan and his team and would not hesitate to use their services should the need arise."
"Michael Collett represented us in our suit, and he was incredible. He made quick, efficient work of getting our case positively resolved while also making sure to keep us updated along the way. We recommend him to anyone seeking representation in a personal injury suit.
Our suit had dragged on for five years, and we wondered if it would ever be finished. Once Mike was handed our case, he immediately got to work getting to know us and understanding the timeline of events. Additionally, as a prior military member, he understood that our case was not a traditional cut-and-dry lawsuit: our life continued while the company dragged it out in court, including PCSing overseas and then back to the US during COVID. This kind of personal understanding and attention to detail was instrumental to our case. Mike's background, compassion, attentiveness, and professionalism made the difference; without him, we could have had a very different outcome.
If you are in need of any representation for a personal injury suit, I highly recommend Michael and his colleagues."
"I'm an attorney in Nebraska and represented a Nebraska family who lost their son/brother due to an electrocution on a job site in Virginia. After handling the workers' compensation claim in Nebraska, I reached out to multiple law firms in Virginia, ultimately co-counseling with Kevin Biniazan on the Virginia third party claims. He worked the case up, secured experts, and ultimately tried the case to a jury. Kevin and his team did a fantastic job presenting the case, arguing points of law, and overall just demonstrated that they had put extraordinary time and effort into preparing the case for trial. They secured a 7-figure recovery on tough facts and were great to work with along the way. I highly recommend Kevin and his firm."
"I give Kevin Biniazan and his team the highest rating I can. I had a case in Va Beach a few years ago, called a few attorneys but ended up going with Kevin because of the knowledge and compassion he showed. After telling Kevin my issue, he and his team did all the work. They took the time to listen to my concerns and feelings, they were informative and available at all times. Along with the success of my case, Kevin and his team gave me the opportunity and support I needed to begin healing. I couldn’t recommend enough!"

"I took a chance on this firm from a recommendation and I couldn’t be happier with their work and the results of my case. Kellie and Nilda are pure gold!

"I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Beasley and Ms. Jennings. I was unfortunately involved in multiple crashes that I was a victim of and sought their firm, Breit Biniazan for help with medical bills and other issues.

I would recommend their firm for any cases you may have, no questions asked."
"I’ve never been in a lawsuit, nor have I been to court, or had anything dealing with legal matter so all of this was pretty new to me, and 9/10 it was scary & heart racing. The only reason I got through it is because of Kevin. If it wasn’t for him with his patience, his commitment to his client, or the will to go the distance I never would’ve had confidence in any of this legal stuff. 10/10 recommend Breit Biniazan."
"Kept me informed of the entire process. Offered advice on how to proceed."
"Fantastic team! Kevin is an amazing attorney who comes through on his word. Kylee and the team of paralegals went above and beyond to help me understand what we should expect in the case. I highly recommend Kevin’s team to anyone who is not only in need of a legal team, but one who will get them what they deserve!"
"Kevin and his team worked tirelessly to help us secure the best possible outcome for an incredibly difficult situation. They were supportive and attentive to our needs, walked us through the process step by step and fought hard for us. I would highly recommend Breit Biniazan for all of your legal needs."
"Following a motor vehicle accident, I needed assistance with handling insurance issues and was referred to Breit Biniazan for their expertise. I had the pleasure of working with attorney Alexis Meier and her paralegal Molisa Gardner. They managed my case with utmost professionalism, efficiency, and thoroughness.
As a physician, I am aware that some law firms may try to enhance settlements by recommending excessive consultations, imaging studies, and other tests, as well as extensive therapy. However, Alexis and Molisa ensured that I received the necessary care without subjecting me to unnecessary tests or treatments. I found their approach to be both ethical and professional.
I wholeheartedly endorse Breit Biniazan and recommend their services to anyone in a similar situation."
"Alexis Meier is an exceptional attorney—professional, knowledgeable, and highly effective. She handled my case with efficiency, care, and compassion, ensuring everything was managed seamlessly. Her team was equally impressive, always responsive and prompt in their communication.
